Bidding strong for Jesus pita toast
| Quote: | Some holy humour has taken hold of New Zealanders with a piece of toasted pita bread, said to depict an image of Jesus Christ, attracting bids of more than $200 on an on-line auction website.
While some people on the website believe the image to resemble satan, the seller, who says he is a 15-year-old boy named Tom is adamant it is the son of God.
The New Zealander, who lists the pick up address in the country’s north island, said the image appeared after he had heated up pieces of pita bread in the oven.
“After the pieces began to blacken I took them out. Oddly enough one piece even looked like the face of Jesus. I was tempted to eat it but for some reason I didn’t,” he said.
“Instead, I left it in the pantry until today, when I finally decided that I might as well auction it off.”
Tom has answered many questions online from people curious and sceptical of the Jesus bread.
One person has asked if Jesus comes with cheese while another asked if Tom would swap his bread for a potato chip that resembled Sir Winston Churchill.
Tom has also refused to swap his valauble toast for a sack of potatoes said to resemble Madonna.
Bidding closes on Thursday, January 8 and currently stands at $215.
Tom has said he would donate some of the money to animal protection groups like the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and World Society for the Protection of Animals.
PERTH

This story is a FAKE... and the only reason it can be considered as a hoax is the following sentence:
| Quote: | | Tom has also refused to swap his valauble toast for a sack of potatoes said to resemble Madonna. |
Now you tell me, how on earth would you refuse to swap your Jesus pita for a sack of potatoes resembling Madonna?
I'm sure if this story would be real, he would trade his Jesus pita for a Madonna potato sack in a blink of an eye..
We're all loonies here, but when it comes to a good deal, we're sure not as dumb as Tom!

Let's Think about that for a moment....
1) 2000 years ago...
2) The eastern Mediterranean...
3) a descendant of Abraham...
In all I don't think that the one on the left was a "Natural Blonde"

Probably not, but the one on the right isn't either.... In fact I would say the one on the left has a closer shot to being blond from the sun bleaching her hair....of course the one on the right also probably had some bleach involved....
